1. The 37 territories
The registry contains Nigeria’s 36 states and Abuja Federal Capital Territory. The map is an interface to those 37 records; the searchable territory index is the complete text alternative and source of navigation.
2. Prices and value
An unclaimed territory starts at ₦1,000. The current value is the amount attached to the latest confirmed claim. The next minimum is the current value plus the greater of ₦1,000 or 10%, with the percentage increase rounded up to the next whole naira. Early positions therefore move from ₦1,000 to ₦2,000 to ₦3,000.
The amount shown in checkout comes from a short-lived server quote tied to the territory version, account, representation, source attribution, and active legal-document snapshot. The browser cannot choose a cheaper authoritative amount.
3. Current holder
The current holder is the patron attached to the latest active reign for a territory. A reign begins only after a verified payment is committed and a confirmed ledger event is appended. A quote, pending authorization, failed payment, or refund does not create a reign.
4. Rankings and the Front Row
Territories are ranked primarily by current confirmed value. Ties use the established deterministic sorting rules so the same records produce the same order. The Front Row contains the ten highest-value current positions; it is not a ranking of personal wealth, popularity, or official influence.
5. Time and proof
Public times come from server-recorded events, not a customer’s device clock. A proof page and share card are generated from the confirmed ledger event and its stored representation snapshot. They describe what the registry recorded at that time; they are not identity certificates or endorsements.
6. Moderation and corrections
Content state is evaluated separately from financial history. A representation, account, reign, or event may be neutralised in public views while the underlying event remains available to authorised operators. Administrative corrections are appended and attributable; confirmed ledger history is not silently rewritten.
7. Experiment reporting
The experiment report counts confirmed economic events against predeclared Phase A and Phase B criteria. Continue, hold, or stop readings are evidence summaries, not automatic decisions. The operator records the final decision and should sanity-check distinct payment instruments where identity counts could be distorted.
